Three More Kit Kats
This is the 20th different flavoured Kit Kat I’ve managed to sample (not including versions we get in Australia), and I’m restraining myself from jumping on ebay to order more to fuel my sick obsession (there is apparently a soy sauce flavoured version!). The first two in this post were sourced locally from Great Eastern on Russell St.
First up is Strawberry flavour, which is not my favourite. It is a little too sweet and fruity and kind of like doing a triple shot Strawberry Quik.
Simple white chocolate Kit Kat - simple in design and taste.
This Bitter Green Tea Kit Kat came via EG’s parents who recently came back from Hokkaido. They found it at Narita airport, and apparenty it is limited to the Tokyo region.
I absolutely adore the green tea flavour, which happens to just go ever so well with chocolate in the Kit Kat form. I think this version was done in conjunction with Itoh Kyuemon, a famous sweets shop in Kyoto.
You can look at my other Kit Kat posts here, here, and, oh yes, here.

Well Ed, you won’t be dissapointed.
As you may well know, the Japanese have a particular penchant for over-wrapping. So I am happy to report that inside each Kit Kat box are TWO foiled packages, each containing TWO fingers per pack.
So you can have your box and your foiled Kit Kats too.

Ah, so many kit kats. But still not nearly enough…. are you still planning on making that giant kit kat?

Well the problem with making it is then I have to eat it, and I fear it won’t be good for my ever-so-svelt waistline
